Police capture suspect after overnight manhunt

FLORESVILLE -- As of 10:30 a.m., Jerry Guerrero, 39, of Floresville, is in the custody of the Floresville Police Department, officials said. Anonymous tips led police to a residence on D Street earlier this morning, where Guerrero was arrested on a warrant charging him with evading arrest or detention with a motor vehicle.

Guerrero’s charge stems from a high-speed pursuit through Floresville Aug. 30. Lt. Chad Clark of the Floresville Police Department said Guerrero fled from Sgt. Devin Keen after a witness reported that two people stole copper from his truck. Keen said Guerrero left the scene in a Ford Explorer while his alleged accomplice, 29-year-old Isenia Sotelo of Floresville, fled on foot. She was captured on Ninth Street by Police Chief Lorenzo Herrera a short time later.

The pursuit ended when the Ford Explorer crashed through a fence near the intersection of F.M. 536 and C.R. 101 west of Floresville. Guerrero allegedly fled the scene on foot, which spurred a lengthy manhunt and led to the warrant being issued for his arrest.

Upon apprehension, officers took Guerrero to the Connally Memorial Medical Center in Floresville, where he was treated for injuries sustained in the crash.

Nobody is d**ing the police, in fact quite the opposite. Had council allocated their slush fund to police protection, things like this could be avoided. Read the post again. Just like a rash of....ten. burglaries in the same ... More ›

Nobody is d**ing the police, in fact quite the opposite. Had council allocated their slush fund to police protection, things like this could be avoided. Read the post again. Just like a rash of....ten. burglaries in the same neighborhood lately, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. The money spent on bond proposals could be allocated to more important things, like saving lives, instead of king club rooms, drinking and partying, and baseball fields not even meant for our school kids

We spent last night listening to the all too frequent sounds of screeching tires, sirens and high speed chase we've grown acclimated to hearing in Floresville. Meth labs. Homelessness. Domestic violence. But our elected officials think we really NEED a huge sports complex.
For the first time ever, we are locking our doors. Thanks guys. Hope YOUR kids are scared too. My kids' rooms were lit up with red and blue lights. I hope YOUR kids felt the same fear mine did last night. But you're cutting line items for necessities such as public works and police protection in favor of travel to San Antonio for political events and legacy projects. I had to drive a young homeless man to San Antonio so he could get the help he needed because y'all have your priorities wrong. Someone who grew up here, graduated from school here. And can't get his life in order here. You default on the money you owe the ISD, then are appalling that the citizens are not in your court for ridiculous bond obligations?
Wake up, ya Jackwagons. Floresville is on fire while you wonder what's for dessert.
